Fun fact, in some "elemental circles," there's a fifth element - Metal. Or wood, but for Dr. Doom here, it looks like it's metal. Sometimes, however, it's something else - Spirit. Which obviously isn't literal in Doom's case, but spirit certainly seems to be something he has in spades. Probably not the makers' intentions, but interesting to think about.
Yeah they're not turned into the standard Western elements, they're based on the Chinese Elements, where in this case they replaced 'Wood' with 'Earth'. That's why Victor is Metal and the others are the classic four.
Honestly most of my love of the Ultimate FF is nostalgia, I was picking this up and Ultimate Spidey as a kid when it was released in the early 2000s, but as an adult and a Ff fan the Ultimate FF, is definitely hit or miss for me, its neat having a more modern interpretation of these characters and the more interesting ways they use their powers, there are just certain aspects that don't jive well for me. However its cool reading the entire run up to Reed becoming the Maker, it feels like something that looking back then is built up nicely. Great stuff
Fun fact: the free zone in Copenhagen seems inspired by Christiania, a real place in Copenhagen that is considered it's own free zone. There's a long history behind it, but kinda cool they seemed inspired by it
please don't take this the wrong way your a good looking guy (great beard) but I think the face cam doesn't really work for this content, still a good video
So there is an acual Doom out there? Be ohnest with me here your last name is doom would you try to get any form of doctorate so you could say that your Doctor Doom cus man ngl i would definitly try, tho id likely fail.
It will be intresting to see how MCU will do FF..I`ll bet that Doom will be a Black dude in MCU..or maybe he will be Russian? race swapping FF and even Doom is still coming
i have to respect this comic's restraint for not immediately making reed a domestic abuser, sue and johnny lovers and ben grimm a pedo, wish i could say that about other ultimate heroes
0:07 Well, there’s three things. The first one is what you said, the second thing being nostalgia, and the third thing is no one has really done a full overview on the other Ultimate Universe series other then just Ultimate Spider-Man since that’s the most popular one, and Ultimates 3 and Ultimatum being rather infamous.
I wonder if Miles Morales went to something similar with Flash in Flashpoint where his mind was slowly being rewritten with the memories of the Flash of that alternate universe and now Miles Morales has assimilated the memories of the regular Miles from Earth-616 simply because, everyone forgot about the Ultimate universe I guess, and tbh other media had done Justice to Miles' character so now Marvel can Present their own Miles as a character who always existed in their mainline comics for those discovering Spider-Man from other media, I realized this has nothing to do with the Fantastic 4.
i think why the ultimate universe is popular on your channel is we all know the ultimates are bad but not really why there bad and don't actual wanna read the comics so lets have someone suffer for us
you know, learning about Dr. Doom is kind of interesting. Too bad it has a crushing end. How the fuck did they make a great story like Ultimate Spider-Man then make Ultimatum???
Have been really enjoying your stuff since discovering you, BUT whoever does the female voice is just soooo off putting with the flat lifeless delivery. Completely throws me off whenever I hear them and they ruined the Spider-Man Carnage video
I'm disappointed that there wasn't a banana reference in this second one like in the first one... I just don't get it why people like the Ultimate Universe, I was happy when it was gone but I guess I'm just a hater but at least the new thing will be written by Hickman so it can't be that bad.
The native universe Miles Morales from 616 is actually a totally separate character and a villain, he's also very different from ultimate Miles. The reason 1610 Miles Morales is in 616 now is just because Molecule Man used the control he had over the secret wars merged universe to put him into the main marvel universe with his family all alive again once that event ended. (I believe his mom was killed by the 2nd Ultimate Venom, maybe some others died too) That's my understanding of it, basically the main universe was changed to "Give the illusion" he's always been from 616 even though he's not and he knows it. Meanwhile the original 1610 universe was thrown into Chaos hence why Maker Reed Richards is still trying to take over 616. So yeah, basically there's the explanation with Miles and his connection to the Ultimate Universe.
Ahhhh good old Ultimate Marvel, one of my favourite alternate Marvel universes, weird, edgy, realistic, and also great stories and fun! (well...minus Ultimates 3) I've completely forgot this Victor alternate version has a cloven hooves!
I really like how the military had to come in and save F4, it really grounds these OP characters, and it's a shame it was only because it was made in 2004 and they wouldn't do that today simply because the military is not the respected establishment it was 2 decades ago, and there is something wrong with that sentiment on its own.
